Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Marguerite Makes a Book by Bruce Robertson

I know this one has been discussed on the forums before - but I had to post about it because it was such a wonderful living book. Full of information for the big kids, and a story that engaged my four year old, so we all crammed on the couch and enjoyed it tonight. My children just studied illuminated manuscripts in our co-op a few weeks ago, so it was timely. Anyone studying the middle ages or illuminated manuscripts must check it out! I'm thinking the big kids could read How the Irish Saved Civilization (Thomas Cahill), the littles could experiment with home-made dyes, and everyone could experiment with their own illuminated page... SO fun!
